Shell Gadinia S3 40
Lubricants for medium-speed marine diesel engines running on distillate fuels
Shell Gadinia S3 40 is a high quality, multifunctional diesel engine lubricant which has been specially designed for the most severe service in main propulsion auxiliary marine trunk piston engines burning up to 1% sulphur distillate and bio-fuels.
The newly formulated Shell Gadinia S3 40 has also been optimized for use in non-engine applications which are typically found on board such as gearboxes, clutches and stern tubes.
Performance, Features & Benefits
- Extended oil life
- Engine protection
- System efficiency
Shell Gadinia S3 40 is also approved for use in a number of non-engine applications such as gearboxes, clutches and stern tubes – this can help smaller operators to minimize inventory by removing the requirement to keep multiple specialist lubricants on board.
Main Applications
- Highly rated, medium speed, main propulsion & auxiliary trunk-piston stationary & marine diesel engines.
- Shell Gadinia S3 40 will also perform satisfactorily in smaller high-speed engines typically used in fishing fleets which operate under arduous conditions and have small sump sizes.
- Turbochargers, oil filled stern tubes and variable pitch propellers.
- Deck machinery & other marine applications requiring SAE 40 viscosity oils.
